follow basic precautions including the
following:
• Read all instructions before using your

disposer.

• Use only detergents and rinse agents
recommended for use in a dishwasher.
• Store dishwasher detergent and rinse
agents out of the reach of children.
• Do not wash plastic items unless marked
"dishwasher safe" or the equivalent.
Check with manufacturer for
recommendations, if not marked. Items
that are not dishwasher safe may melt and
create a potential fire hazard.
• If the dishwasher drains into a food
disposer, make sure disposer is
completely empty before running
dishwasher.
• Disconnect electrical power to dishwasher
before servicing.
• Repairs should be done by a qualified
technician.
• Do not tamper with controls.
• Do not touch the heating element during
or immediately after use.
• Load sharp knives with the handles up to
reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.
• Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas
may be produced in a hot water system
that has not been used for 2 weeks or
more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE.
If hot water system has not been used for
such a period, before using dishwasher,
turn on all hot water faucets and let water
flow from each for several minutes. This
will release any accumulated hydrogen
gas. HYDROGEN GAS IS FLAMMABLE.
Do not smoke or use an open flame
during this time.
• Do not store or use combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors and
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance.
